The shadow ministry of Kellie Sloane is the shadow cabinet of New South Wales since November 2025, serving in opposition to the Minns government. The shadow ministry is the Opposition's alternative to the Minns ministry. It was formed following the 2025 New South Wales Liberal Party leadership election where Kellie Sloane was elected leader of the New South Wales Liberal Party and Leader of the Opposition.[1][2]

Current arrangement

The current arrangement of the shadow ministry was announced on 6 January 2026.[3] This arrangement was intended to be announced before Christmas 2025, but the announcement was delayed due to the Bondi Beach shooting.[4]

Among the new shadow ministers was Monica Tudehope, who joined her father Damien in the shadow ministry. The previous party leader, Mark Speakman, was also returned to the shadow ministry.
